ABSTRACT
Kip plans to present on the introductory nuts and bolts of patent prosecution for an audience of inventors. Additionally, Kip plans to discuss the various ways patents are valued, including the heavy skew in patent valuation (1 patent in a portfolio of 100 patents can drive the value of the entire value of the portfolio), the tendency of patents to not be enforced or monetized, the brittle nature of patent enforcement value, as well as non-enforcement reasons for obtaining patents, including signaling, credentialing, satisfying investors, and rewarding inventors.
